NECROPHAGIST on CAPITAL CHAOS 2007
NECROPHAGIST perform "Diminished To B" @ The Boardwalk ~ Orangevale, CA 2007 on the California date of The Summer Slaughter Tour. Necrophagist is a technical death metal band from Germany. Founded and fronted by guitarist/vocalist Muhammed Suiçmez. The band is widely recognized and appreciated for their highly technical compositions. Mainly noted for their immaculate sweeping techniques heard on "Onset of Putrefaction" and "Epitaph" written and performed by Muhammed. http://www.necrophagist.de/ Necrophagist's debut album, Onset of Putrefaction had been out of print for years. Muhammed was never satisfied in full by the sound of the album. Eventually, the band re-recorded it. The differences between the original and the re-release of Onset of Putrefaction include new drum samples that Hannes Grossman, the drummer, recorded piece by piece. All of the old guitar, bass, and vocal tracks were mixed along with the brand new drum samples, to create a crisp and clear stereo track. The re-release also features two songs from Necrophagist's 1995 self-titled demo tape. The whole album was also engineered by long time Necrophagist engineer and producer Christoph Brandes at The Iguana Studios. It was mastered by Bob Katz at "Digital Domain", Orlando, Florida. The re-release was issued in 2004 by Willowtip Records in America/Canada and Relapse Records in the rest of the world. http://www.myspace.com/necrophagistde On the 10th of February, 2006 it was announced that Christian Muenzner had departed the band due to 'scheduling conflicts'. A replacement guitarist has been found, Sami Raatikainen, who is from Helsinki, Finland. Sami also plays in the band Codeon. The band was on hiatus from March 2005 to June 2005, due to Muhammed Suiçmez being ill. http://www.darklyrics.com/n/necrophagist.html In 2006 the band did an American (Canadian dates were cancelled) tour called "Carving North America's Epitaph". Necrophagist was joined on this tour by Arsis, Alarum, Neuraxis, Ion Dissonance, Cattle Decapitation and Thine Eyes Bleed. They, along with Dying Fetus, supported Cannibal Corpse on their US tour in the fall, which also included some Canadian venues. The band recently announced on their MySpace page that after the 2007 California Metalfest, drummer Hannes Grossman would leave the band. Hannes has stated that he was unable to commit to the band's full-time touring schedule. Marco Minnemann (who has played with Paul Gilbert, Terry Bozzio, Chad Wackerman) is the official permanent replacement for Hannes. Necrophagist was a headlining act for The Summer Slaughter Tour in 2007, which featured a wide variety of other extreme metal bands including Decapitated, Arsis, The Faceless, Cephalic Carnage, As Blood Runs Black, Cattle Decapitation and many more. Arsis, however, had to cancel numerous amounts of shows due to an incident with their bus in Sacramento. As of now, they have begun to write their next album, hoping it will be released before The Summer Slaughter Tour 2008. #66 - Most Linked (Today) - Music - Global 12/04/2007 #57 - Most Linked (Today) - Music - Global 12/04/2007
